Update:

Just read in the builder instructions that while importer is for importing previous projects, currently only accepts version 3.0/4.0 flying site (.pxf) files.

As well doesn't seem as if builder will open any of the now 5.0 versions of the any of the models already in the sim.

So am I right, with this update all our previous models variants are now gone...and cannot make new ones from either a import of the old work, or even starting out from scratch with a new variant from a existing model?

May have been broken into four parts, but if the download fails anywhere along the way, the installer isn't smart enough to figure out where it left off, instead, it starts the entire download all over again.

I got it downloaded tonight, and so far things are going well . One thing I noticed right off the bat is the ground seems more real with regards to being slippery.

All my models came through in their last used form, and after a TX calibration to the new software, It seems to fly as well. I briefly looked at the other stuff, but didn't get into it very much at all.

I had just changed internet service providers, and my new security suite is a lot more involved than was the old one. It put the quash on some of the downloads that Phoenix was trying to do, but after I answered the correct questions, it let it go through.

When I start Phoenix it doesn't tell me a new update is avaialable. I tried check for updates and nothing that way either. I am running version 4.0q. Any ideas? Thanks Chuck

OK I see my problem. There is a version 4.0r before 5.0. Updated on my laptop to 4.0r and now downloading 5.0. Went to the desktop to update manually from 4.0q to 4.0r and that download isn't listed now. I will try again later and see if it shows up. Anyone else have that problem? Chuck

Similar problem here. When I start my Phoenix SIM I don't see the update to 4.0r (am on Q at the moment) nor do I see the update to V5. Any help is appreciated

I started Phoenix and went to the system menu and did the check for updates. My program did the update to R and at the same time started the update to 5.A.

However my antivirus stopped the update and I had to go to the AV software and OK the Phoenix downloader was good. Then I re-initiated the update and it installed normally, however, I now get the program and builder folders, but I can't find the tutorials.
